cp: skipping file x' as it was replaced while being copied

Sorry if this has been asked before but:

While copying files from another server (cifs) I get the following error:

cp: skipping file `xxxxxxx', as it was replaced while being copied

dmesg says:

CIFS VFS: Autodisabling the use of server inode numbers on \\192.168.xx.xx\xxxx. This server doesn't seem to support them properly. Hardlinks will not be recognized on this mount. Consider mounting with the "noserverino" option to silence this message.

I am unable to copy any files across and if i manage to they are corrupted.

I have mounted the server as such without luck

mount -t cifs //192.168.xx.xx/directory /mnt/floppy/ -o username=xxxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxxxxx,noserverino

Any ideas?

Regards,

Mike.
